Apr. 25, 22: Routine, Teaching, TV, and Games

I got a really late start on the morning routine today, and while I was able to get most of it done and write a decent post on time, I didn’t even have a minute to chat over on Discord.

That did mean, though, having slept from about eight thirty until just shy of seven, I got an amazing nine and a half hours of sleep! 🎉🎊 What was the difference tonight? I took some painkillers before bedtime because it was firing pain down through my hip and into the back of my leg. 😢 I think it’s actually pain that wakes me up in the night…not all the way awake, but rolling trying to find a spot that doesn’t hurt.

Speaking of posting, it’s back to eleven past ten in order not to get skipped by the goddamn brofund bot today. 🤬 It’s annoying waiting and it meant that I had to post going seventy-five on the highway, which is dangerous and stupid. If I don’t reset it today, it will be up to thirteen past on Wednesday when I’m driving again and in the middle of the PIMP meeting, so it looks like I don’t have much of a choice; going to have to take the completely unnecessary hit today. 😡🤬

I totally procrastinated on getting my exams ready for today and so the stress level was pretty high. I went in and checked the email I’d archived with the department exam attached, but all the questions were missing! 😱 Kinda’ thought I might have to rewrite the whole thing, but when I went in on the computer it was fine and I got it printed. I’d actually sent myself the Calculus final to print before, so that was fairly easy to find a copy of and I printed them both out.

Made my lunch, got a shower, and got everything together out in the car to head in for work. Even though I was a bit late getting out the door, the drive went smoothly enough that I made it there with enough time to actually get all my copies made before class (was planning on doing that at lunch). 👍

One of the Algebra students needed to take the exam on Wednesday, so I needed to have the prints done today even though it’s not actually until next Monday. That does mean, though, that all my prep is done for the rest of the semester!!!! 😃

We basically went through a practice final today and will do so again on Wednesday, so they’ll know exactly what to expect and what skills I want them to demonstrate. Went up to the testing center after class and got a new profile set up in their new system and got the student’s test ready for him and then went out to the car for lunch.

Had a chance to chat in Pizza server during lunchtime and we had a fun conversation about being and not being. 🤓 Was definitely an enjoyable way to kill some time.

Headed in for Calculus and we did more or less the same thing, walked through the final as we’ll do on Wednesday as well. We did actually take nearly the whole time and then I stayed after for a little while and answered some individual questions.

The drive home was no problem either and I was back right around five or so. Wenche got home not much long after and made us steaks and seasoned fries and salad for dinner, I did the dishes piled up in the sink, and then we watched some more or the new season of Pretty Hard Cases.

It got pretty late, and I was over joking around on Discord for a while as well, but I did get my Splinterlands quest done before a relatively late bedtime.

I mean, WTF is negative income even supposed to mean? How is it not complete and utter nonsense? dShitty shittiness knows no such bounds as zero!!! They do not recognize nothing, and blast past it like it is precisely nothing. I actually got the whopping six like the past week or more, so I guess I’m getting paid to play? 🤷 Ok, I do get the payment for holding SIM, which is the only reason I haven’t chucked this in the bin long ago.

To the best of my recollection, I only went in once on Rising Star today. I did finally get to level fifty-four, now it’s the long grind to fifty-five. I did hear something about having to do the millionaire mission every week in order to actually get the benefit from it…🤬 I really need to ask someone for a clear explanation of what’s going on with that.

Although I did fire up the computer today, it was for work (to print out my final exams so I could make copies) and I didn’t have time to waste on HashKings clicking buttons and repeatedly refreshing the browser. It’s fine, though, don’t have all that much desire to watch another pair of plants die anyway.

Went in pretty early in the morning and entered my brawl battles. Was going to do it at lunch, but I didn’t want to risk missing it. I wasn’t assigned this time, so I volunteered for one of the gold foil brawls and damn! I got spanked wicked hard! 😱 Even so, later in the day I got my participation reward.

It was seriously late again when I started on my Splinterlands quest. So late that I really didn’t want to play, but did anyway. Didn’t turn out too bad, though.

Got three wins without neutral monsters for my quest and it didn’t take too long. I really wanted to get into Diamond before completing this one and came super close, but it was already late like I said, so I just went for getting it done. Got a relatively decent chunk of DEC this time:

Had enough credits to get another Gladiator pack. Was meh, I don’t particularly get that excited about them anyway. With no use or value outside of brawls except for a couple deck power points, big whoop:

SPS drop was down again slightly. Just staked them up and didn’t make any moves with vouchers.

Got my stats for last week. Pretty happy with almost all green arrows across the board! 💪😄 All I need now is to get some proper, solid nights of sleep and things will be turning upwards. 👍
